File, Drive, And Pcmcia Card Problems - HP OmniBook 5000 User Manual

If you installed a new mouse driver, disable it. Only the OmniBook mouse driver
supports the built-in trackball. Use SysEdit or a text editor to open the
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.INI file, then in the [boot] section change the
mouse.drv line to be mouse.drv=c:\mouse\gui.drv .
Try cleaning the trackball. See
If the trackball doesn't work in MS-DOS
See "To enable the trackball in MS-DOS"
Use SysEdit or a text editor to open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, then delete rem
from the GMOUSE line.

For information about maintaining your disk drives, see
If a PCMCIA card doesn't work properly in a card slot
Try removing and reinserting the card.
Try inserting the card in the other card slot to check the connector.
Try removing a PCMCIA card from the other card slot, if another card is present.
For a data storage card, check that you're using the correct drive letter. See the
drive icons in File Manager.
Make sure your OmniBook is set up to support the type of card you're using. If
you've previously used CardLite to reduce the PCMCIA support level, check it now:
Exit Windows, then type cd \cardsoft and clcfg. From the Configure menu,
choose CardLite. Remember to press
level. (Try restoring full PCMCIA support—see
cards".
If you've installed Stacker compression software on your OmniBook, check that it's
set up properly—see "If Stacker compression software isn't working properly"
Make sure you have not installed new Card Services or Socket Services software
shipped with certain PCMCIA cards. The original versions on your OmniBook are
the correct versions to use.
Make sure you've properly installed all the software required by the card, such as
drivers and specialized applications. Check their command-line options. See the
manuals for the card and software.
For a flash-memory card (such as an Intel Series 2 card or an old OmniBook
Communications Pack card), this type of card is not supported—the necessary Flash
File System drivers are not included with this model of the OmniBook. Contact the
card manufacturer for available information.
In Program Manager, double-click the OmniBook Notes icon (in the OmniBook
Library group). Check for general or specific information about PCMCIA cards.
Use SysEdit or a text editor to open the C:\CONFIG.SYS file, then check the
following:
Depending on the type of card, check CONFIG.SYS for the required driver
command lines listed below. Then use File Manager to check that the
corresponding driver files are present in the C:\CARDSOFT or
C:\OMNIBOOK directory.
